2.5 legacy engine into impreza
Ive come across a 2.5 legacy engine that has done a couple of shells,
it is a us spec engine, and my question is will the engine fit into an impreza, im only after the short block to match with my heads.
its gonna need a new crank etc,etc
also is this engine just as good as the newer impreza 2.5 engines, could i expect to see 400bhp with supporting mods
thanks

EJ25 is normally aspirated - wouldn't try to run it without changing pistons and rods. It's open deck.
After 3 long years I'm just fitting a phase 1 EJ25 ('97) in my scoob

I was told mine was a Semi Closed Deck block...... How that works I don't know....
If it's not closed, then I spose it's open... he he
Mine had all new internals.... forged pistons and the like......

You'll need to change the pistons for low compression items and sort out fueling/management.
